More Information
Summary:Methods and devices for improving indicia decoding with an imaging device are disclosed herein. An example method includes: (a) searching, by an imaging device, a search region within a current image for an indicia, wherein the search region includes a plurality of search seeds; (b) attempting, by the imaging device, to decode the indicia within the search region by analyzing image data corresponding to each seed of the plurality of search seeds; (c) responsive to not decoding the indicia, capturing, by the imaging device, a subsequent image featuring the indicia; (d) adjusting, by the imaging device, the search region based on a distance between the imaging device and the indicia featured in the subsequent image; (e) designating the subsequent image as the current image; and (f) iteratively performing (a)-(f) until the imaging device decodes the indicia.
